When young divers discover the wreckage of a cargo plane at the bottom of the sea, they believe their dream of buried treasure has come true. What they don't realize is that millions of dollars of illegal goods are in that sunken plane and a group of dangerous criminals are already desperately searching for it. As tensions mount and the friends begin to fight about what to do with their find, others get closer to discovering their secret -- and the treasure hunters quickly become the hunted.

Into the Blue is fun to watch because it's, well, fun to watch - particularly when its stars dive into the blue in their various skimpy bathing suits (which they do often), but it's not much of thriller.

It takes Stockwell forever to get these details into place, because he's primarily concerned with Caribbean and bikini-clad eye candy. But even that loses its novelty in a ridiculous showcase like this.

Pretty bad but not awful. This is mainly due to the likes of Scott Caan, James Frain and the great Josh Brolin. It is hard to imagine what Josh Brolin was… MorePretty bad but not awful. This is mainly due to the likes of Scott Caan, James Frain and the great Josh Brolin. It is hard to imagine what Josh Brolin was thinking when he took on this role as his scenes were some of the only interesting things in this film. Also shots of topless Paul Walker and various other desirable men make it watchable.

Jared Cole and his girlfriend Sam Nicholson are a young couple living in the Caribbean. Jared is an unemployed diver whose dream is to find treasure in the Caribbean Sea and Sam works at a local resort as a shark handler. When Jared's best friend Bryce Dunn, a selfish New York lawyer and his new girlfriend Amanda Collins arrive, the two couples spend a couple of days experiencing paradise. But, they discover an airplane on the sea floor that crashed during a hurricane and they find the cargo on-board the airplane is cocaine. Jared and Sam's lives are in danger, when Bryce and Amanda make a deal with a dangerous drug lord who wants the cocaine. Jared's rival, Treasure Hunter Derek Bates learns what they are doing and tries to negotiate the cocaine to raise money for a expedition where he intends to find a sunken boat with treasure. Jared, Sam, Bryce, and Amanda find themselves racing against time to find the shipwreck before somebody else does.

Jared Cole (Paul Walker) makes his living salvaging wreckage from ships off the coast of the Bahamas. He shares a rattle-trap trailer home with his girlfriend, Samantha "Sam" Nicholson (Jessica Alba), a shark expert who works at a nearby resort. While both are happy with their lives in the islands, Jared dreams of finding a major score and living the high life. One day, Jared and Sam are paid a visit by Bryce Dunn (Scott Caan), a childhood friend of Sam's who is now doing very well as a lawyer. Bryce and his girlfriend, Amanda (Ashley Scott), have come to the Bahamas for a few days of diving and fun, and Sam and Jared show them the waters while making use of his yacht. While diving with Sam, Bryce, and Amanda, Jared discovers the wreckage of a plane used to smuggle drugs, and thinks he may have found the big score he's always dreamed of. While Sam persuades Jared that the cargo is too risky to move, Bryce and Amanda think there's a fast buck to be made, and team up with Primo (Tyson Beckford), a local underground entrepreneur, to fence the contents of the plane. However, Bryce and Amanda have underestimated just how dangerous Primo and his henchmen can be, and now Sam and Jared must come to their rescue.
<b><u>Review</u></b>
Into the Blue took the premise of 1977's "The Deep", and put a spin on the story. By spin, I mean they made a crappy remake with only Jessica Alba as redemption. Paul Walker delivered his lines way too zealously, and his "angry" moments were received with a humorous response, probably not intended by the screenwriter/director. Jessica Alba did well with what lines she had, but was underutilized throughout the movie. They basically reduced her to eye candy and gave her no responsibility. The movie had elements of potential, being the great underwater photography, and apparently large budget, but the script and delivery was lacking. The pacing was also irritating. I found myself confused as to why the characters were doing what they did, but hey, who am I to critique Alba. The bottom line is this; this is a movie, not a film. Buy a 6-pack good beer, and watch it not expecting much, or better yet, go watch "The Deep".

Gorgeous location probably destroyed through making this film, hope not surely not, it looks a great place to dive, and this movie is a bit of a thriller too… MoreGorgeous location probably destroyed through making this film, hope not surely not, it looks a great place to dive, and this movie is a bit of a thriller too and quite clever for the most part. Just wish there were was more footage of the ocean and fishies and less of Paul Walker

A cool movie with the lives of cool people involved! It doesn't seem that great, but I enjoyed it, even though I know I shouldn't!

His composition and use of light against tinted lenses are stunning and always beautiful. It's a shame then that all his film are shite due to crap storylines and awful scripts. Into the Blue is an exception. The acting isn't great an neither is the script but the storyline is solid and this is an underrated and entertaining movie!

I loved the underwater scenes in this flick. It makes me want to head to the islands and scuba all day long. The story is a little rough but watchable.

It wants to be a thriller, action movie, treasure hunt and doesn't really succeed in any of those genres over the full length. Sure, it shows some nicely formed bodies of both sexes swimming in beautiful waters and all that's really nicely filmed, but is that enough to keep an audience not infatuated with the actors watching? The plot jumps back and forth between those different attempts, the humor isn't exactly very funny and there isn't much action to talk about up until the decent showdown. The movie isn't boring either. It just simply isn't much to write home about, despite of all the beauty.

I think it was on in the background at a party. Not worth my attention.
